Let users Import past concert data from Setlist.fm. (Maybe Last.fm and facebook data too?) See profile here http://www.setlist.fm/user/bitsy
43 votesI'm happy to let you know that we now offer Setlist.fm imports! We just made a post with more information and the challenges of enabling it. It's free for anybody to read on our Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/setlist-fm-are-122152888
You can also read it on our blog here: https://www.concertarchives.org/backstagepass/setlist-fm-imports-are-finally-here/

Enable adding videos directly onto the website (from your laptop, tablet or phone).
This feature would give you the opportunity to upload videos you made to a concert, even if you don't work with YouTube to store all your concert videos.
42 votesYou can now upload videos directly to Concert Archives from the app or the website! This is a really big milestone and took a lot of work, so we're excited to add this new ability 🎉 You can read more about the latest update here: https://www.concertarchives.org/backstagepass/our-biggest-update-ever/
Cheers,

Specify artists seen at festival
Allow me to specify which artists I saw at a festival so my artist counts are more correct
37 votesThis is already possible by creating a new Concert from scratch by entering the info manually rather than using the Past Concert Search Engine.
One other good tip is to create a separate Concert for each day of the festival and the system will do a better job at finding the artist setlists.
-
Be able to follow users
It would be cool to get notifications about the concerts my friends are adding.
27 votesThis is done! You can now follow your friends on Concert Archives :)
When you are logged into the site check out the ‘Social’ area in the navigation.

Option to Make Your Archive Private
Just like with other forms of social media, members should have the ability to decide whether their personal archive should be searchable/viewable by the public or other members. Some type of privacy settings and options would be a very welcome addition.
25 votesUsers are now able to set their profiles as ‘Private’!
More information about how it works is available here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/private-profiles-18645238

Bands seen vs Bands played
bands you saw at the concert vs bands attended
24 votesThis is complete! On the concert page you can now select the bands that you saw. The other “not-seen” bands won’t count towards your statistics.
-
Have a self ranking on the sidebar
Along with the rankings by year/band/location, be able to self rank favorite concerts.
20 votesGood news! I’ve just added the ability for you to mark your Favorite Concerts and have them displayed on your Overview page and a new Favorite Concerts page :)
There’s a bit more info here: https://concertarchives.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/1820272
We’ll add some more features to the Favorites functionality in the future (particularly the ability to sort), but this is a nice start :)
-
If concerts are automatically added, be able to mark bands you saw/didn't see
This is especially useful for festivals where there are 50 bands and you only saw 10.
19 votesAfter you’ve added the concert/festival you can then ‘Edit’ it and remove the bands you didn’t see.
-
Re-order bands or indicate Headliner act
It would be nice to have a check box to indicate the headliner, so when you view the details the headliner is always at the top of the band list instead of defaulting to alphabetical order.
19 votesYou can now drag and drop the bands into the correct order :)
-
Import concerts from Excel file
Using a similar format to the export file, allow for import of concert lists. Many of us have long lists of concerts, this would be much easier and quicker than manually entering them all.
19 votesThis has been added! You can now import concerts into your archive from a CSV spreadsheet. More details and a link are included in the Release Notes: https://www.concertarchives.org/release-notes

Be able to export your history into an excel or other document file
Not sure how difficult or possible it would be but being able to back up the information in some kind of format would be amazing. Would love to be able to export this just in case.
16 votesI’m happy to report that I added the ability for you to export your concert archive to Excel!
You’ll now find a link in your Profile Menu and on your Settings page called “Export to Excel”. Here’s a screenshot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31839/Screenshots/export-to-excel.png
Easy peasy :)

Shows your archive to users who have attended many of the same shows as you. Great way to make new concert buddies!
Shows you archives of people who have attended a lot of mutual shows. Great way to make friends!
14 votesThere is now a ‘Recommended Users’ feature under the ‘Social’ menu to do this. The users listed on top are ones who attended the same concerts. Below that are ones that saw many of the same bands (at different concerts).
-
Deleting doubles of concerts
Sometimes concerts are added multiple times even though they are the same concert. So sometimes like 5 entries of the same concert exist (for example Rock en Seine is one I attended where I didn’t know which one was the right one to add cause there were so many)
13 votesWe run processes every night that automatically searches and merges duplicate concerts. We've already merged almost 1,000,000 duplicate concerts! Typically when you find that duplicates still show on the site it's because some of the information doesn't match up. For example, the Venue name or the Location will be slightly wrong. We are continuously working to clean up data like that which will always be an ongoing effort.
As far as fact checking, we have people on our team that do that too but due to the sheer volume of concerts that are always happening we rely on our users to submit corrections and help with that. Thank you!

Have a future concert wishlist
Let users input future concerts and all their information, then allow any users to search then add those concerts to their future concert wishlist. After going to the concert you can then just tick it off and it'll add it to your list.
13 votesI just added quite a few new features around ‘upcoming concerts’. You can see more details on the Release Notes here: concertarchives.org/release-notes
I also added the “Bucket List” feature a few months ago that is like a wishlist.
Thanks for the suggestions!

Add a (de)select all button for bands
Add a deselect all button for bands at festivals. At many multistage festivals, one only sees a small fraction of the bands. To make it easier to quickly enter your info, it’d be cool to have a deselect all button, instead of deselecting hundreds of bands (e.g. for FEST)
10 votesThis has been added! It's live on the website now and will be included in the soon-to-be-released Version 5 of the mobile app that includes tons of features that were previously only available on the website and not in the app.
-
Change order of bands
Fix the order of the bands by the way you input them, sometimes the headliner would not appear first

Merging Bands/ Artists into one listing
Merge multiple listings of the same artist due to misspelling or typos
9 votesI released a feature called ‘Aliases’ a couple of weeks ago that helps solve this. We can now set ‘Aliases’ for bands, locations, and venues behind the scenes. For example, the official spelling is “blink-182”, but a lot of people enter it as “Blink 182”, which caused there to be duplicate listings. Now the “blink-182” listing has an alias of “Blink 182” (amongst others), so any time somebody enters “Blink 182” it’ll automatically get corrected and applied to “blink-182”. This works for Locations (“Portland, OR” vs “Portland, Oregon”) and Venues as well.
You can email me a list of aliases to be entered to [email protected] or use the ‘Report Issue’ link in the site navigation.

Way to link bands of the same name to setlist.fm to ensure setlists are correctly retrieved
It would be very helpful to allow someway to link duplicate bands to the correct artist on setlist.fm to ensure the setlist is retrieved
8 votesWe released a backend feature recently to fix this! If you come across examples where an artist is consistently getting linked to the setlists for a different artist, you can email us at [email protected] and we can easily get those properly linked up now!
